Did you have a bike when you were a child?
Điểm: 15.0Gợi ý: Câu trả lời có ý định trả lời “Yes” nhưng phần sau khó hiểu và chưa hoàn chỉnh. Hãy nói rõ bạn có xe đạp hay không, dùng thì quá khứ phù hợp (ví dụ: “I used to ride”), đồng thời hạn chế từ đệm như “uh” và kết thúc bằng một chi tiết cụ thể về tần suất hoặc nơi bạn thường đạp xe.
Ví dụ: Yes, I had a bike when I was a child. I used to ride it around my neighborhood after school, especially at weekends.
Do you think bikes are popular in your country?
Điểm: 20.0Gợi ý: Bạn đã đưa ra ý kiến đồng ý nhưng câu trả lời bị ngắt giữa chừng, nên lý do và ý nghĩa của phần “most of my students” chưa rõ. Hãy nêu trực tiếp mức độ phổ biến, sau đó giải thích bằng một lý do hoặc ví dụ cụ thể. Dùng cấu trúc hoàn chỉnh như “Many people ride bikes because…” và tránh lặp từ, từ đệm.
Ví dụ: Yes, I think bikes are quite popular in my country. Many students ride them to school because they are affordable and convenient for short distances.
× Yes, I when I was a try, I usually, uh, go. Bye bye.
✓ Yes, when I was a child, I usually went by bike.
The words ‘I when I was a try’ do not form a grammatical clause, and the response is interrupted by disfluencies. A clearer sentence is ‘When I was a child, I usually went by bike.’
× Yes, I when I was a try, I usually, uh, go. Bye bye.
✓ Yes, when I was a child, I usually went by bike.
The question asks about the past, so the verb should be in the past tense. Use ‘went’ rather than ‘go’ to describe a past habit.
× Yes, uh people ride bicycles, uh often make a um most most of my students uh used to um bicycle for
✓ Yes, people often ride bicycles. Most of my students used to ride bicycles.
The response is incomplete and contains a fragment ending with ‘for.’ Organize the ideas into complete sentences and omit the unfinished phrase. ‘Used to’ should be followed by a base-form verb; ‘ride’ is a natural choice here.
